The cooking process involves the consumption of oils and fats. As a result of this, the load on the sewer network increases, and this, in turn, leads to blockage of pipes. Currently, supervisors have tightened control and require food service and food production facilities to clear fats from drains before they enter the sewer network. Special devices allow this.
Industrial grease trap: introduction
Industrial grease trap is a rectangular or cylindrical container made of polypropylene. Inside the tank there are partitions that divide the structure into two or more compartments. In the first chamber, large particles settle to the bottom, in the second - wastewater is purified from fats.
Industrial grease traps differ from household grease mounted under the sink, efficiency, productivity and large dimensions. As a rule, the device has two types of installation: ground and underground. Installation of the latter is done through a special hatch.
Mounting Methods
Aboveground grease traps are mounted in basement or utility rooms, taking into account the ease of maintenance and unhindered access to the installation. They are connected to an industrial drainage network. Sludge is pumped using a sewage machine. For this purpose, the equipment is equipped with special discharge pipes.
An underground industrial grease trap is installed vertically in the ground, leaving only a technical hatch outside. Horizontal installation is also possible, depending on the characteristics of the sewer network, volume and other conditions.
Scope of application
These designs are inevitably installed in chemical, cosmetic and food industries:
- soap making;
- fish;
- Confectionery
- Bakery
- distilleries and other factories.
In addition, an industrial grease trap for sewage is in demand in large catering enterprises, where household washing devices are not able to cope with their functions.
The frequency of maintenance of these devices depends on the degree of contamination. Dates can be set during operation individually by the consumer. Some designs include a warning sensor or an optional automatic grease discharge system.
Alta Group Company - manufacturer of grease traps
One of the popular manufacturers of grease separators for home and industrial use is Alta Group. It uses durable and environmentally friendly materials in production (not subject to corrosion, soil pressure, the influence of weather and aggressive environments) and offers a wide range of both ground and underground performance.
Alta-M-OR series industrial grease traps are round in design, which makes it convenient to mount them into concrete rings in the soil or directly into the ground, provided that the installation technology is followed.
ALTA M-OR 3.6-240
The grease trap ALTA M-OR 3.6-240 is the youngest model with compact dimensions and light weight. It cleans drains of non-emulsified fats and oils with an efficiency of 1 l / s. This model is perfect for use in small catering establishments, where a one-time discharge of drains does not exceed 240 liters. Also, this model can be used in private homes (in the event that there is no desire to put a fat separator in the kitchen for washing). The installation has all the necessary SanPiN certificates.
Specifications
Grease catcher industrial ALTA M-OR 3.6-240 has the following technical parameters:
- weight, kg - 42.0;
- diameter of pipes, cm - 11;
- efficiency, l / s - 1;
- efficiency, cubic meters / hour - 3.6;
- ultimate simultaneous discharge, l - 240;
- dimensions, cm - 95.5 âĸ 150.
ALTA M-OR 7-500
The feature of the ALTA M-OR 7-500 grease trap is that it does not require constant tracking and maintenance. This grease separator has a circular configuration and is designed for outdoor installation. Such a convenient shape makes it easy to mount it in concrete rings. For greater stability of the installation, industrial grease traps of this brand have mounting eyes, with the help of which additional fastening to the concrete base is carried out. The company "Alta Group" can manufacture the device to order the configuration that will be most suitable for installation in concrete rings.
The ALTA M-OR 7-500 grease trap is made from steel low-carbon alloys or polypropylene. These materials are resistant to soil pressure, are airtight, do not corrode, are reliable and wear-resistant.
Principle of operation of the ALTA M-OR 7-500 device
The principle of operation of the grease trap consists in the gravitational floating of fat to the surface. The apparatus has two internal compartments: heavy impurities located in the drains are collected in the lower one, and thin-layer modules, a container for storing collected fat and pipes, are collected in the upper one.
Industrial grease traps ALTA M-OR 7-500 have the main advantage, which lies in the high efficiency of the purification of effluents from non-emulsified fats and oils. They make up 99% of all pollutants, and this fact is confirmed by relevant certificates. The water leaving the unit can be discharged for further purification into a local or central sewage network.
